After reading the book, I realized one important character that all of us must have, that is to stand up for your own rights when others think that you are in the wrong and stop doing something that you feel is right.
People are always against somebody who feels that whatever he does is right. People always think that the person who does whatever he think is correct as stubborn and thus, they stereotype him and they have a bad impression about him, thinking that he is one who does not listen to other people’s opinion. In reality, he has a character of standing up for his own rights and voicing out his own opinion.
With the example given above, that is why in real life, people who stand up for their own rights is getting lesser and lesser as most people think that by standing up for your own rights is an absolute waste of energy, effort and time. Therefore, most people prefer to listen to other people’s advice and follow as they do not need to waste their time voicing out their own opinion.
We must be able to stand up for what we think is correct and not let others control over what we can do and what we cannot do. We must voice out our opinion so that others would not think that we are weaklings and thus, think that they are able to control what we do and our thoughts of what is correct and what is incorrect.
By being able to stand up for your own rights, when you grow up, your boss will start to like you as he thinks that you are one who comes out with your own ideas instead of other workers who just follow what he says. He will think that you are capable and a born thinker and leader and thus have a good impression on you.

Q2)Two characters in the book
Book Read: Nothing but The Truth by AVI
The two characters in the book that I am about to compare is the two main characters that are described very well in the book, they are Miss Narwin and Philip Malloy.
Miss Narwin is a homeroom teacher who teaches in Harrison High School. She teaches Philip Malloy.
Miss Narwin is also being too strong-headed against Philip. She is always against Philip, such that every time when she hears humming in the class room during the national anthem, she will always pinpoint Philip as the person who was humming and he is always her main target. When there is humming in the class, she would ask,” Philip, is that you singing again?” without even getting enough evidence to pinpoint Philip as her main target.

When there is humming in the class, she would ask,” Philip, is that you singing again?” without even getting enough evidence to pinpoint Philip as her main target.
When Philip is humming or even singing the national anthem, she will ask him if he was singing and when Philip continues singing without heeding the advice of his teacher, Miss Narwin will lose her temper and she will scold him and ask him to get out of this classroom to meet the principal in his office so that the principal would be able to deal with Philip without her needing to waste her time to berate Philip.
Philip is a boy who stands up for his own rights and says that by humming “ The Star-Spangled Banner”, their national anthem is to show his patriotism towards the country and show his loyalty towards his country. He does not follow what other people says and voices out his own opinion to let others reflect upon.
Philip is also a boy who does not want to let others control over him on what is correct and what is incorrect. When it was the last straw for Miss Narwin who knew that it was Philip who was humming, she scolded him and asked him to stop humming. However, Philip did not want others to control over what he can do and what he cannot do, thus he voiced out his own views and said that America was a free country and that he could say anything that he wanted.

Q4)Title
Book Read: Nothing But The Truth by AVI
I think that the title” Nothing But The Truth” is a good title because this book is all about the reality and the truth when Philip was being dismissed from school for two days for breaking the school rule which said to maintain respectful silence when the national anthem in school was being played.
Philip Malloy was only humming to the national anthem to show his patriotism and his loyalty towards his country, America. He was trying to show that America is his country and that he would not pledged loyalty to any other country by humming “ The Star- Spangled Banner”. Miss Narwin, his homeroom teacher then said that they should abide by the school rules and thus, requested for Philip Malloy to get out of the class room and go to the Principal’s office to let the principal deal with it.
The truth is that Philip was only trying to show his patriotism towards America to pledge loyalty and not trying to go against Miss Narwin or to try to break the school rules. Thus, when it was the last straw for Miss Narwin and she could not take it anymore of Philip’s singing, her anger rose and she asked of Philip to get out of the class. However, Philip voiced out his opinion of Miss Narwin and stood up for his own rights, saying that in America, it was a free country and that he could say anything that he wanted to say. He also said that it was not wrong of him to hum the National Anthem, “ The Star- Spangled Banner” during class as it was a free country.
His parents also said that they had been training him since young to sing the National Anthem as his whole neighbourhood has been doing since young. They are very supportive of him and with the reporters and the whole of America behind to support him, he believes that he is correct in singing the National Anthem.
